Package: gimp Version: 2.8.2-2+deb7u1 Severity: normal In light of the no-security-updates status of webkit-gtk, I thought it wise to disable all in-process web browsing in gimp. This seemed to be mostly a matter of not using the help browser. So I tried that: in Preferences|Help System I selected "Use the online version" from the "User manual" selector, and "Web browser" from the "Help browser to use" selector. I also purged the gimp-help-en package. I am disappointed, however:
Choosing the Help|Help menu item results in a message box saying: "Could not open 'http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-help.xml' for reading: Operation not supported Perhaps you are missing GIO backends and need to call GVFS?" That message sure seems like it's still trying to read the file in-process. I thought it would simply execute sensible-browser with the URL as an argument. Not surprisingly, I get the same message when I select the Help|User Manual|Basic Concepts menu item. When I select the Help|GIMP Online|Main Web Site menu item, I get a different message box: "GIMP Message Calling error for procedure 'plug-in-web-browser': Operation not supported GIMP Message Execution error for 'Main Web Site': Error: ( : 1) Procedure execution of plug-in-web-browser failed: Operation not supported" Dear Maintainer(s), what is going on? -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.10.58.3 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gimp depends on: ii gimp-data 2.8.2-2+deb7u1 ii libaa1 1.4p5-40 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libbabl-0.1-0 0.1.10-1 ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-4 ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u4 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-3 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.8-1+deb7u4 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100.2-1 ii libexif12 0.6.20-3 ii libexpat1 2.1.0-1+deb7u1 ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-7.1 ii libfreetype6 2.4.9-1.1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libgegl-0.2-0 0.2.0-2+nmu1 ii libgimp2.0 2.8.2-2+deb7u1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-5 ii libgs9 9.05~dfsg-6.3+deb7u1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.10-2 ii libgudev-1.0-0 175-7.2 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libjasper1 1.900.1-13 ii libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0 1.8.1-3.4 ii libjpeg8 8d-1+deb7u1 ii liblcms1 1.19.dfsg-1.2 ii libmng1 1.0.10-3 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libpng12-0 1.2.49-1 ii libpoppler-glib8 0.26.5-1~bpo70+1 ii librsvg2-2 2.36.1-2 ii libsm6 2:1.2.1-2 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.38.1-3 ii libtiff4 3.9.6-11 ii libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 1.8.1-3.4 ii libwmf0.2-7 0.2.8.4-10.3 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1+deb7u1 ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.13-1+deb7u1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.1-2+deb7u1 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0-4+deb7u1 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.1-1 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.10-1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.3-1+deb7u1 ii python 2.7.3-4+deb7u1 ii python-gtk2 2.24.0-3+b1 ii python2.7 2.7.3-6+deb7u2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages gimp recommends: ii ghostscript 9.05~dfsg-6.3+deb7u1 Versions of packages gimp suggests: pn gimp-data-extras <none> pn gimp-help-en | gimp-help <none> pn gvfs-backends <none> ii libasound2 1.0.25-4 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
